Hi all,
I cannot succeed in opening mailto clicks from iceweasel with gnus.
More precise I can open them but not with the receiver address filled
in. I did try it in several ways (using mozex), e.g. these two scripts:
#!bin/sh
emacsclient -e "(gnus-url-mailto \"$1\")"
#!/bin/sh
exec emacsclient -e "(compose-mail \"$1\" \"$2\")"
Any hints?
henry

In case you use Gnome, like I do, here's what works for me:
In the 'Preferred Applications' preference, I've put "Custom"
"mozmail.sh %s" as the Mail Reader.
mozmail.sh is simply:
#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/gnuclient -batch -eval "(mozmail \"$1\")"
And in my .gnus, I've got:
; mozmail:
(require 'mozmail)
This may (or may not) be an antiquated way to do it, but it works for
me.
Best regards,
Adam

And if I use KDE, anyone out there found a solution in KDE? (I've been
searching for the place to change the default email client in KDE for
a few days). I'm using Slackware 11, KDE 3.54 and Emacs 22.1.
Thanks,
Joel

Mmh, thanks, but I don't use neither gnome nor kde. On the other side I
don't have emacs21, I'm running emacs23, which does not come along with
gnuclient and the above solution does not work with emacsclient ;)

Adam Sjøgren's tip should work, but not using gnome or KDE, you need
to go into about:config in iceweasel. There are thorough instructions
in the starting commentary of "mozmail.el" somewhere in the lisp tree
(I'm on xemacs, so I don't know exactly how to find it under gnu
emacs).
Concerning gnuclient/emacsclient, it seems unbelievable that there
shouldn't be at least a similar service. Maybe you should try
gnu.emacs.help on that?
Cheers

Yes, this was a big step forward! Following the instructions concerning
about:config it now works. Gnus is started - I would have preferred to
do it with compose-mail but anyway...

These lines in mozmail.el made me believe that it won't work with
emacslient:

Thanks to all
